Edward Gorey, Großmeister des Kuriosen
Düster und komisch, voller skurriler Wesen und makaberer Ideen sind die Zeichnungen und Geschichten von Edward Gorey. Walter Moers stellt den „Großmeister des Kuriosen“ in einem reich illustrierten Buch vor.
„Für einen unabhängigen Künstler hat er zu viele Auftragsarbeiten abgeliefert, für einen Illustrator hat er sich zu viele künstlerische Freiheiten herausgenommen, für einen Schriftsteller hat er ziemlich wenig geschrieben, für einen Kinderbuchautor sterben zu viele Kinder in seinen Büchern, für einen Humoristen sind einige seiner Bücher zu düster und für einen Horrorautor gibt es zu viel zu lachen.“ Walter Moers

On a appris tardivement le décès de l'écrivain américain Peter Neumeyer. L'occasion de rappeler qu'il était venu en Belgique en 2018 pour le Théâtre du Tilleul et de rappeler son magnifique parcours d'écrivain, avec Edward Gorey notamment, et d'analyste de la littérature de jeunesse. Il avait notamment rencontré Astrid Lindgren et Tove Jansson.

It's officially Halloween here, so I'm doing my traditional posting of this riff on Edward Gorey's The Gashlycrumb Tinies.
🎶
One by one we bite the dust
Kick the bucket, begin to rust
Give up the ghost when your number's up
We all fall down
Ashes to ashes, bones to paste
You'll wither away in your resting place
Eternity in a wooden case
We all fall down 🎶A Gorey Demise - Creature Feature

Five stars:
The Doubtful Guest by Edward Gorey (1957) is Gorey's third book. It features a bird shaped guest who arrives uninvited and unannounced. The book is a series of stated things the guest does with illustrations of the family they have invaded trying to carry on as if they're not there.

Just finished reading this book, which I had picked up in London. Written by a long-time theatrical collaborator of Gorey’s, it complements Mark Dery’s biography of him, focusing mainly on his late-life theatrical career on Cape Cod, and featuring photographs, drawings and excerpts of scripts/directions.
I cannot help but wonder whether, had Edward Gorey lived another 5-10 years, he’d be known as a playwright.
